The purpose of this calculator is
to show approximately how much damage a given creature can do to you in melee
combat and how much damage you can do to it. Furthermore it might give you
some ideas for how you can improve on your equipment when fighting that creature.

All properties displayed in red are the ones
that are most important against the creature. Ie. the ones that will absorb
or inflict the most damage.

To calculate the damage for a creature, simply pick it from the dropdown
menu and fill in the following information about your equipment:

Your Armor:Resistances: The 5 resistances your equipment gives you, these numbers
are found in the right side of your status gump or, if you for some reason
can't wear the equipment, by adding the resistances for each piece of equipment
together.

Your Weapon:Damage: This is the damage you will do against a 0 resist opponent.
You can find these values on your status gump. If you are not able to equip
the weapon, you can use the link
to open a small calculator, that can calculate the damage based on your
stats and skills.Damage Types: These 5 values are displayed on item property gump
for the weapon.Slayer: If your weapon is a Slayer
weapon, select the correct type here.

Material:
The material buttons on the right side are for selecting a materials base
damage types. This will show you how much damage a 100% Physical damage
weapon would do if you enhanced it with another material. The percentages
are the amount of your total damage the material will inflict on the
creature.

Special Attacks:
If you have the chivalry skill, you have a few abilities available that
will increase your damage potential against most creatures. Check the
fields for the abilities if you want to see how much they will increase
your damage.
